Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension
and approval.
Rule 6e–2 (17 CFR 270.6e–2) under
the Investment Company Act of 1940
(‘‘Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 80a) is an exemptive
rule that provides separate accounts
formed by life insurance companies to
fund certain variable life insurance
products, exemptions from certain
provisions of the Act, subject to
conditions set forth in the rule.
Rule 6e–2 provides a separate account
with an exemption from the registration
provisions of section 8(a) of the Act if
the account files with the Commission
Form N–6EI–1 (17 CFR 274.301), a
notification of claim of exemption.
The rule also exempts a separate
account from a number of other sections
of the Act, provided that the separate
account makes certain disclosure in its
registration statements (in the case of
those separate accounts that elect to
register), reports to contractholders,
proxy solicitations, and submissions to
state regulatory authorities, as
prescribed by the rule.
Since 2008, there have been no filings
of Form N–6EI–1 by separate accounts.
Therefore, there has been no cost or
burden to the industry since that time.
The Commission requests authorization
to maintain an inventory of one burden
hour for administrative purposes.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) ways to

minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology. Consideration will be given
to comments and suggestions submitted
by December 11, 2023.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
under the PRA unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
